one of the web pages prints out differently to the others

#1 21-Jul-2003, 00:17

I have the weirdest situation I have built a website using MX, the web pages background is black with white text. I have recently included an additional feedback form page which has the same color configuration. However this new web page prints out with a complete black background print with white text while the others print out normally with clear backround and black text.

Any ideas?

I have checked the code in each page. there isn't any thing different to the new one.

Now the blasted form won't work and my boss is going to kill me.

Any assistance will help

Here is the link to the site.

If you could also help with the coding on that form I would be so grateful. If you could also help with the coding on that form I would be so grateful. My boss is going to have me for breakfast today.

Hello KiloKilo, welcome to GIDForums.

I'm slightly confused as the print preview for me gives white background with black text, which is what you want right? No black background for me.

Are you meaning the printing after something has been submitted? I just thought that you probably meant this didn't you? Maybe CSS would have been cleaner for you to use.

p.s. your articles page isn't working on the About us page.

It looks perfect in print preview but prints out with black background.

Any help on the coding

Cheers

Hello KiloKilo,

This bit in your HTML:

HTML Code:


<title>SEO</title>
</head>

	
<body bgcolor="black" text="white" link="#6495ed">

try replacing just that few lines with:

HTML Code:


<title>SEO</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body {
  background-color:black;
  color:white;
}

a:link, a:visited, a:hover, a:active {
  color:#6495ed;
} 
-->
</style>
</head>	
<body>

I think that will help solve the problem.
